Abstract: An LED luminary system for providing power to LED light sources to generate a desired light color comprises a power supply stage configured to provide a DC current signal. A light mixing circuit is coupled to said power supply stage and includes a plurality of LED light sources with red, green and blue colors to produce various desired lights with desired color temperatures. A controller system is coupled to the power supply stage and is configured to provide control signals to the power supply stage so as to maintain the DC current signal at a desired level for maintaining the desired light output. The controller system is further configured to estimate lumen output fractions associated with the LED light sources based on junction temperature of the LED light sources and chromaticity coordinates of the desired light to be generated at the light mixing circuit. The light mixing circuit further comprises a temperature sensor for measuring the temperature associated with the LED light sources and a light detector for measuring lumen output level of light generated by the LED light sources. Based on the temperatures measured, the controller system determines the amount of output lumen that each of the LED light sources need to generate in order to achieve the desired mixed light output, and the light detector in conjunction with a feedback loop maintains the required lumen output for each of the LED light sources.

Abstract: Symbol timing synchronization in OFDM communication systems where multiple wireless terminals communicate with a single base station is described. Base station transmitter and receiver symbol timing is fixed. Each wireless terminal operates to independently adjust its transmitter timing. Transmitter timing synchronization at the wireless terminal is slaved to the terminal's receiver timing synchronization. Each wireless terminal first corrects its receiver symbol timing based on a signal received from the base station. The wireless terminal then adjusts its transmitter symbol timing as a function of its receiver symbol timing. When the receiver symbol timing is to be advanced or delayed by some amount, the transmitter symbol timing is also advanced or delayed, respectively, by the same, or substantially the same, amount. Symbol timing adjustment can be made by adding or deleting digital samples from the first or last symbol in a dwell.
